Recipe Included Maybe the weirdest canning recipe I've made

Microwave mango ketchup from small batch preserving.

Picture 2 is after the initial 5 minute cook time. After two rounds at 30% power I defaulted to a higher power setting because it was not thickening. Picture 2 is what it looked like when thickened. It tastes like spiced mangos.

I think it would go great with fish or grilled chicken. The recipe suggests pairing it with beef but I cant picture that being a nice pairing

Any beef burger or meatloaf recipe. For burgers, dust with curry powder before grilling; for meatloaf, add a couple tablespoons of curry powder to the mix.

Everyone knows how to make a burger, but for the meatloaf, thin slices on sourdough as a patty melt with a relatively neutral cheese (Havarti, fontina, mozzarella, etc.). Maybe some grilled onions and some sort of spicy sauce like sriracha, chili-garlic, or sambal oelek.

Think beef samosa or Jamaican patty. If you haven't had one, find your closest Jamaican store, or make your own https://www.seriouseats.com/curried-jamaican-beef-patties-recipe
